I’ve used a lot of microphones. I’ve tried every DIY option from connecting my Zoom H4N to the computer to using the stereo microphone on my Logitech HD webcam. I’ve recorded audio separately using my wireless Sennheiser kit, and then synced it to the video. And sometimes when I’m really lazy I just use the internal microphone of my computer.

This had gone on for a while, and it was becoming a headache. I needed something that would easily plug into my computer and record high quality audio. So I broke down and bought the Blue Snowball USB microphone. See below.

I’d heard about the Blue line of microphones including the Yeti & Snowball. I’d watched many test videos on YouTube. But I’d never tried it out in person. I bought the Blue Snowball after testing it out at work – working at UC Berkeley as a video producer. Surprisingly, it works wonders! We use it at work to record voice over for our videos.
